Well, although those codes expired today, a new wave has cycled in to replace them. In addition, pre-orders have gone up for upcoming games and amiibo, including restocks of older figures, so now&#8217;s the time to avoid the eBay scalpers and fill those gaps in your collection.<\/p>\n<p>First, the new stuff. Nintendo UK has also opened up some pre-orders on some games and amiibo. Both <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch\/animal_crossing_new_horizons\">Animal Crossing: New Horizons<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch\/dr_kawashimas_brain_training_for_nintendo_switch\">Dr Kawashima\u2019s Brain Training for Nintendo Switch<\/a><\/strong> are both now available for pre-order. You\u2019ll have to wait until 20th March for the former, but the latter is releasing just after the New Year on 3rd January 2020.<\/p>\n<p class=\"disclaimer\">Please note that some links on this page are affiliate links, which means if you click them and make a purchase we may receive a small percentage of the sale which helps support the site.
